Book Talk: Connilyn Cossette

Listen to the episode with Connilyn Cossette

It’s always so fun to talk with Connilyn Cossette, and today’s episode of Book Talk is a delight. In her latest novel, Shield of the Mighty, she brings a character from her prior series back — only now he’s a grown-up soldier in Saul’s army. The heroine is a widow who hates everything about Saul, so there is a clash from the first moment the two meet. Fundamentally this book is a story of moving from brokenness to healing, from vengeance to a place where you leave it all to God. She loves balancing the warrior mindset with romance and a bit of humor.

Connilyn has always wanted to be a writer, but she didn’t have the confidence to attempt it until she was in her thirties. Now she would tell her younger self to read broadly so she could pull those ideas into her books earlier. As you listen you’ll see that procrastination is a big challenge, but deadlines help immensely… There’s so much good content in this episode, I can’t wait to hear what you think!
